Chapter 32: The King Doesn't Believe!
When Wang Shoushi left, Guo An raised his head and looked at the elders in front of him.
"Among the elders, if there is an account book that fools the official like the king lieutenant, take it back and change it for the official as soon as possible!
Otherwise, Hugh blames the official for keeping an account! ”
"Don't worry, we are definitely not as careful as Old Man Wang!"
"That's it, please rest assured that the county will never be so greedy!"
"County Zun, in fact, Old Man Wang didn't have any selfish intentions, but he starved a lot when he was a child, four brothers and sisters in the family starved to death, and two sons in the family starved to death!
At this point, when you see food, you can't help but want to stock up on more! ”
"That can't be a fake account!"
Guo An snorted coldly, "This official can take you to reclaim more wasteland and grow more grain, but you can't make fake accounts to deceive grain!" ”
"Yes, county honor!"
When the remaining old men saw Guo An's solemn temper, they were heartbroken, and hurriedly surrendered.
"Hmm!"
Guo An nodded slightly, and then took an account book again.
"Which township is this?"
"Back to the county, this is from the township where the grass people are!"
An old man in the middle hurriedly stood up and said with a nervous expression.
"Hmm...... Well? ”
Guo An was just about to nod, his expression froze, and he quickly stood up.
"Temple...... Your Highness? ”
"Your Highness?"
The old men looked startled, and hurriedly followed Guo An's gaze and looked back.
Sure enough, behind them, a young noble son appeared at some point!
At this time, Guo An had already hurriedly stepped forward.
"The lower officials see His Royal Highness King Yan, I don't know that His Royal Highness King Yan has come to my county office, but there is something important?"
"Grass people, see His Royal Highness King Yan!"
Zhu Di said: "This king can't hang out? ”
Guo An said respectfully: "Your Highness can come to the Xiaguan Mansion, which is an honor for the Xiaguan and all the officials above and below the Wanping County Ya, and the Xiaguan is very welcome!" ”
Hearing this, Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction, and then looked around again.
"In this way, the lower officials will not disturb His Highness to hang out!"
Seeing this, Guo An bowed respectfully to Zhu Di again, then returned to the official chair again and began to check the account book.
In the entire public house, all of a sudden only the sound of reading the pages and writing was left.
On the side, Zhu Di's face was stunned.
He is the dignified King of Yan, and he was actually hung here by a small magistrate?
At this time, Guo An had already finished reading the account book in his hand, and instructed Ning Deyou directly to the side.
"Yes, the number of grain IOUs in Sanhe Village is about the same, give them IOUs!"
"Yes, county honor!"
As he spoke, Ning De counted a stack of written IOUs and handed them to the lieutenant chief of Sanhe Village.
Hao Dade, the mayor of Sanhe Village, accepted the IOU with a happy face, and after counting it in public, he put it into the wooden box he carried with him, and hurriedly bowed to Guo An.
"Thank you county, scribe Ning!"
It's just that Guo An has already begun to pick up a ledger again, turning the pages while quickly checking it.
Ning Deyou, who was on the side, also picked up the brush by himself, like a printing press, and repeatedly wrote IOUs.
In less than a cup of tea, Guo An checked an account book.
Immediately, he picked up a ledger again and looked at it.
Seeing this, Zhu Di's face was full of suspicion, and he couldn't bear it anymore.
"With such a fast speed, you can calculate the amount of grain that hundreds of households need to borrow in this ledger?"
Suddenly hearing Zhu Di's voice, Guo An was subconsciously startled.
"Your Highness, you haven't left yet?"
"Huh?"
Zhu Di couldn't help but widen his eyes, "Are you driving this king away?" ”
"Your Highness forgives your sins, and the lower officials are a little fascinated when they look at the account book, and they think that His Highness has left!" Guo An hurriedly smiled.
In this regard, Zhu Di was not angry, but continued to ask: "If you haven't returned to this king, aren't you deceiving this king and the elders?" ”
On the side, Ning Deyou and the elders suddenly looked strange.
"Your Highness, don't make trouble, just add or subtract a hundred numbers, and the lower officials are confident that they will not go wrong!"
"Huh?"
Zhu Di's face sank, "This king doesn't believe it!" ”
"Your Highness, the addition and subtraction within this hundred digits can be easily calculated by everyone, and Xia Guan really didn't lie to you!
Xia Guan still has a small hundred account books to check, and Xia Guan can't accompany you! ”
Guo An arched towards Zhu Di helplessly, and then continued to pick up the next ledger and check it.
On the side, Ning Deyou and the old men were full of wry smiles. This kind of county is good anywhere, but you can't open your mouth, and everyone can easily calculate it, so what are they?
And Zhu Di, whose face was blackened, stood directly in front of Guo An, and after Guo An checked the account book, he snatched it with one hand.
"Tell the king, how many stones of grain is to be borrowed in this ledger?"
"Back to Your Highness, a total of 1,220 stones! As for why there are more than 20 stones, it is because this Li Li Chang borrowed four more stones of grain from his family, and there are also a few more widows and lonely people in this family, and a few more families have also borrowed a few more stones.
However, in general, there are not many more stones, and you can still see the past! ”
As he spoke, Guo An picked up the next ledger and continued to look at it.
"Thank you, county!"
The lieutenant on the side hurriedly said with a smile on his face.
Then, he looked at Zhu Di on the side with anticipation.
"This king doesn't believe it!"
After speaking, Zhu Di walked directly to the side of a household servant.
"You stand on one side, and this king will count it himself!"
The household servant hurriedly got up and gave up his desk and chair to Zhu Di.
Zhu Di sat down directly, picked up the pen on the side, and carefully calculated page by page.
Although the Four Books and Five Classics, Zhu Di is not so proficient.
Zhu Di, who has liked to lead soldiers to fight since he was a child, is very serious about arithmetic, and he thinks that he is not inferior to those doctors of arithmetic in Guozijian!
However, like Guo An, he has never met a person who can be calculated just by looking at it.
I don't believe that there can be such a fast person in this world!
Soon, a quarter of an hour passed.
Zhu Di finally raised his head in satisfaction and stretched his body.
At the same time, he asked the household servant who had been waiting on the side: "This king has finally calculated, a total of 1,220 stones, how many stones has Guo An calculated?" ”
The household servant replied cautiously: "Back to Your Highness, the county lord also calculated 1,220 stones!" ”
"What?"
Zhu Di hurriedly opened the pile of papers in front of him and found the number he had just written.
Two eyes, suddenly straightened!
"Fuck it, how is that possible?"
"Your Highness, the county is unbeatable in this aspect of arithmetic! No matter what kind of complicated numbers are placed in front of our county honors, the county honorables can calculate them very quickly. ”
The household servant said with admiration on his face.
On the side, a group of old men and household servants all nodded their heads again and again.
Seeing this, Zhu Di had to believe it, turned his head to look at Guo An, who was concentrating on checking, with a look of surprise.
"What kind of magic is this?"
As he spoke, he walked up to Guo An again and looked quietly.
